Campus police did not lock down any classes and never received a report of a gunman, NERF or otherwise, on campus, said Lt. Matt Mills with the University of Arkansas Police Department.

Mills said he did not know from where the false information originated.

The university’s media relation’s department released a statement Wednesday afternoon, stating, “Twitter reports of a shooter on campus are false. There was no shooter. UAPD did not respond to a false report of a shooter. There was no lockdown. We are trying to find the source of this false information. “
